I have read archie issues 1-72 back in the day, And it IS based on the cartoon. After the first issues it does take it's own course, But it's still the same TMNT and everything including the origin are from cartoon. Of course it's better written, and has deeper characters, but it's just a more mature version of the cartoon.

I can see what you mean Karpo, but I see it as the comic EVOLVED from the cartoon. It used the same set up as the cartoon but in time turned into it's own product. BTW speaking of the Mutanimals...does anyone miss them? I know I sure do.

Yes, agreed. Even though it started out borrowing characters (krang, bebop, rocksteady), and settings (dimension X) from the cartoon, I still can't look at it as based off the cartoon. And once Chris Allan got involved, all that was borrowed from the cartoon was virtually gone for good.

I consider it a combination of the old cartoon and the mirage comics, the perfect medium. It started off as a cartoon spin-off and evolved into something more like the original. Mirage is still better though.

BTW I too miss the Mutanamals.

Well lets say it evolved from the cartoon. It has same origin, but yeah it was much more mature than the cartoon. Still it was clearly made for younger audience than Mirage for example.

About the DW comic, nothing new persay, but I think the last line of the first paragrph rather interesting
The new series will tie-in with the new animated Turtles series, but will be similar to Dreamwave’s approach to Transformers: Armada, and will have an edgier feel than the cartoon.

Yeah, of course a comic book can do a lot that a TV-show can't. Some death might even be shown. Good to know that the comic is connected to the carton.

cameo

Not to say hey will krang be the next season. BUT heres a new one will Krang play a cameo in the next season. Like say lead up to something in the storyline or if the show gears that way. You know be a bubba fet in a way like in star wars? he was a warlord u know? Be there for a few mabie as his original body and mabie end up being a part of the show later on mabie if we are lucky cruise along in the T-drome. Krang seems he could be as violent as suki without his oriental yoddle in the backround hehe Then again i'm having pipe dreams, it would be nice mabie a cameo?
